Maarssen Audio Tour: Echoes of Sacred Stones and Riverside Stories

A silent canal in Maarssen once echoed with the clash of rival fortunes, where stately mansions hid secrets behind their elegant facades. This self-guided audio tour leads you through cobbled lanes and waterside paths, revealing stories most maps ignore and whispers only the old stones remember.

What forced the gates of Ter Meer to shut overnight during a storm? Which forbidden gathering at Bolenstein sparked a scandal that rippled through city hall? And why did diners at Auguste swap coded glances under candlelight on that fateful spring evening?

Move from leafy waterfronts to grand estates and cozy corners, piecing together drama, intrigue, and forgotten moments at every stop. Each turn reveals another layer, letting the city unfold through legends, laughter, and lingering mysteries.

Start listening now and unlock the deeper Maarssen that lies just beneath the calm canal surface.
